In some places, Buzz allows you to customize your icons using options from Font Awesome Pro. When setting up custom icons, prefix Font Awesome icon names with `fa-` and one of the following styles:

Single Sign-On (SSO)

Buzz supports the use of Single Sign-on (SSO) features to allow users to sign into one application (for example, a student information system) and be automatically logged into Buzz without needing to re-enter credentials. This feature can help eliminate the need for teachers and students to remember multiple credential sets.

Buzz supports:

  • CAS
  • SAML

Supported browsers

Buzz supports the following browsers:

Screensize: Minimum width of 1024 px; select screens are responsive under 800 px.

Note

Agilix does not support running Buzz within an iframe.

Tips

  • For the best Buzz experience, keep your browser updated. Although your browser should prompt you to install updates as they arise, you can ensure you're using the most current version by downloading and installing the most recent release.

Required websites

The following websites are required to run the Buzz application. If you have firewall restrictions, these websites should be whitelisted.

  • Buzz LMS (e.g., *.agilixbuzz.com or custom URL)
  • Buzz API (e.g., api.agilixbuzz.com or API URL for a self-hosted environment)
  • MathJax (cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax; if you want MathJax to be used in course content)
